Lone Wolf


Ever watching from afar
observing all around
Slowly walking through this life
exploring what is found...

Powerfully intelligent
a predator and friend
An enemy to fear the most
a guardian to the end...

Always loyal to fault
and wounds so easily
A force of nature to respect
destroying terribly...

Instinctualy  predictable
but who can know the heart 
Emotions the Achilles heel
that keeps him far apart...

Dave


Rocking slowly on the porch
a blanket keeps me warm
Spending time in silent thought
sometimes they start to swarm...

Watching cars go driving by
sometimes the people wave
Every now and then they shout 
so how ya doing Dave?

Young and Beautiful


Memories come and take my hand
we travel back in time
Far away across the years
when you were only mine...

How your smile still lights the room 
your laughter fills the air
You're still so young and beautiful
and all the young men stare...

I wish that you could see me here
and know what's in my heart
That all my life I've thought of you
and mourned that we're apart...

Genesis


I'm waiting for the genesis
transition to the stars
I've settled all the former things 
the heartaches and the scars...

It's funny how it all aligns 
the white noise disappears
The hope that lives inside of me
has overcome my fears...

I truly am most satisfied
I couldn't ask for more
My eyes can see the angel now
he's walking through the door...

Loneliness


Some things in life are hard to bare
when loneliness arrives
A gradual wilting of the soul
some how it still survives...

From time to time a ray of hope
but soon it fades away
And then you start to realize
you face another another day...

Some Day


I dream about you every night
and race into your arms
We dance until the morning light
an evening with your charms...

Some day...I won't have to dream
cause you'll be here with me
You and me alone at last
our little family...

You


In the quiet of the night
when all is calm and still
I close my eyes and think of you
I guess I always will...
